Watch: What Trump Just Said About The GOP Establishment Will Surprise A Lot Of People

Did he or didn’t he? Did Donald Trump dominate the primetime debate on Fox News Thursday night or not? Did he acquit himself well on the Cleveland stage with nine other men who want to be the party’s nominee for 2016? Will he maintain his big lead in the polls, or even possibly pick up support? Did he move from being an angry agitator to a more presidential politician?

The opinions on the morning after are all over the place, from Trump handily won the night to Trump crashed and burned. A Fox News focus group conducted by pollster Frank Luntz right after the debate was down on “The Donald,” with many participants on the panel saying their opinion of the billionaire businessman turned negative after a performance they found to be disturbing.

Right off the bat, when moderator Megyn Kelly went after Trump for his past comments about women, the tension on the debate stage was palpable and the tone for the first part of the event was prickly, at best. To many viewers who expressed opinions on social media, it seemed as though Kelly wasn’t the only one of the three Fox News questioners to target the GOP front-runner.

Of course, it might appear strange to many that the brash, bombastic candidate who so readily criticizes others, calling them “stupid” or worse, might take offense as tough, pointed questioning is directed his way.

In a sit-down interview after the debate, Trump found a much friendlier questioner in Sean Hannity, who didn’t challenge Trump as his Fox News colleagues had done earlier, but rather tossed him softball, even leading questions in what seemed like a helpful attempt to let The Donald clarify or emphasize campaign positions.

In the Hannity interview, Trump tried to clear up the issue of whether he would run as a third-party candidate should he not get the Republican nomination. He also explained why he believes Hillary Clinton should go “to prison.” And he said something about the Republican establishment that might surprise many, especially his loyal fans and supporters. Trump told Hannity he’s beginning to like the people that he’s been railing against as weak and wobbly politicians.

By clicking on the video above, you can see for yourself whether Donald Trump, in the Hannity interview, stayed consistent with points he made and stands he took during the debate.
